Superintendent outlines out-of-state trips, donation and driver-education slots
Summary
Superintendent reported an overnight JROTC trip to Flint, Michigan, a late-request Spelman College preview trip, a donation of hygiene items from a company based in Ohio, personnel items pending action, and details on a driver-education grant with six remaining slots.
Superintendent staff presented several administrative items under the superintendent's report, seeking board attention and, for some items, approval at a future meeting.
The JROTC program requested approval for an out-of-state overnight field trip to Flint, Michigan, for the North Central drone competition, scheduled May 18–20, 2025; the superintendent said more information from Colonel Graves was included in the meeting materials.
The superintendent reported a late request for an out-of-state overnight college-preview trip to Spelman College in Atlanta. Staff said they would provide the board with details on funding sources, transportation and supervision before the next board meeting.
A donation was reported from an equipment-share company (address referenced in the meeting as “2 Strata Cash Way, Ohio”) that donated coats and hygiene items for Trotwood-Madison City students; the items will be kept at the board office and distributed to students and families on request.
The personnel agenda was described as very small and was circulated in advance; the superintendent indicated she is asking the board to take action on the personnel items that evening (separations, substitute appointments, after-school food-service appointments and two supplemental positions at Westwood Village).
On the district's driver-education grant, staff said one student completed lessons started earlier in the school year, one more student is signing up, and six slots remain available before the end of the year. Staff reported five interested students have not completed prerequisites (permit or online coursework) required to begin behind-the-wheel sessions.
Why it matters: the field-trip approvals and donation affect student opportunities; the driver-education grant and personnel actions have immediate operational and student-service implications.
No formal board action on the listed items was recorded in the meeting transcript excerpt.
